Great orientation to Tashkent

5.00This was the best tour I had in Uzbekistan. It was a fun group and fun guide who took pains to show us the best of Tashkent with engaging storytelling and local flavour. I would recommend going on a Tashkent tour with Bek on your first day in the city.
A walking tour - not quite as good as we'd hoped

3.00We love walking tours and generally find them a great way to explore a new city, learning a bit of history and interesting facts along the way. The reviews for this tour were excellent but our guide, although kind and helpful, was obviously less experienced and not as knowledgeable as we'd hoped. We did see most of the must see spots in Tashkent during the tour.
Excellent

5.00Excellent tour, very complete. The guide Asrorbek knows his country and his city, has excellent English, and is a lovely person. We had a great time and was an excellent introduction to Uzbekistan.

5.00I had seen the good reviews for Asrorbek. I wish I could meet him, however, my guide was a different person and pressured very much to continue the next tour until 11 PM. I felt very uncomfortable so I reported it to the agency and Tripadvisor. This travel agency still assigned a guide for me even I was alone and apologized for the unpleasant experience. The company promised not to assign the guide in the future. I also don't want to disturb the company growing up. The walking tour is a still reasonable choice, I just want to say that if any tourists face the situation as me, please speak to TripAdvisor and the agency.
Fantastic tour, packed full of fun!

5.00This was one of the best tours I’ve ever been on! I happened to be the only person so I got a private tour, and we saw so much. Asrorbek was a fantastic guide, with excellent English, and was genuinely very excited to share his knowledge of Tashkent and Uzbekistan. Could not recommend this tour more!
Good tour of Tashkent

5.00Asrobek met us in the hotel lobby and bought us on a great tour of the main sights to see in Tashkent. He spoke perfect english and is very knowledgeable about the Uzbekistan history and culture. He is extremely helpful with any requests you have and stives to look after his clients very well. Our legs were sore after the tour as we were walking and standing for over 4 hours! Overall a great tour and I'd highly recommend it.
Good start of our Uzbekistan trip
